Meet Buster

PLEASE read this puppy’s bio all the way through so that we do not waste your time and you do not waste our time. Thank you!
This adorable little man is Buster. He was born somewhere around October 16th, 2016. He and his seven siblings, Mom, Dad, and older sister, Janey were living in a pretty grim situation in a neighboring city until they had the good fortune to come to the Duxbury Animal Shelter. Seven of his siblings have found phenomenal homes and Buster is now awaiting his turn. Unbeknownst to us, Buster was the eighth puppy we never knew about because he was separated from his Mom and siblings at just 3.5 weeks old and given to a relative of the person who bred the Mom and Dad. The other puppies were extremely well-raised and were adopted to superior homes. Buster came to our shelter on April 25th when the owner's landlord kicked him out of the apartment. Buster did not have the same wonderful upbringing at the Duxbury Animal Shelter that his siblings had so he is having a hard time managing the big outside world but he is making huge strides daily and we are hoping that Buster will be as lucky as his siblings in the near future. Buster is now on an excellent diet and has received the very best veterinary care. He is being socialized with kids, cats, and dogs and is enjoying the company of everyone he comes in contact with. If you are to be considered for adoption for Buster, you must fit the following criteria. We will make no exceptions so please understand how important it is that you meet all the criteria. You must live within an easy hour driving distance to Duxbury. We will be making frequent visits to your home to make sure that all is well with sweet Buster. We do not adopt to people who do not own their own homes, NO EXCEPTIONS. We do not adopt dogs to people who live out of state. There are plenty of dogs near you that desperately need homes, you do not need to come to Massachusetts to find the dog of your dreams. Someone must be home for the majority of the day so that Buster can have the enormous social life that he presently enjoys at the shelter and someone who can spend enormous amounts of time helping him to adjust to the big world. Buster is not a piece of furniture or a lawn ornament, he needs to continue to have a blast every day, just like the life he has at the shelter. We will not be placing Buster in a home with children because Buster must be the center of his person(s) universe which will include daily WALKS, rides in the car, and hanging out enjoying quality time with his person(s). Buster will not be taking a back seat to anyone, literally. If you are to be considered a candidate for adoption for Buster, you will be required to sign up for Puppy Classes with a certified dog trainer at a dog training facility near you. With the proper training, Buster could easily become a therapy dog because he is very social, kind, and sweet. What you put in to the proper raising of Buster is what you will get in a wonderful lifetime companion. If you are “just looking for a dog” you are not going to be a match for Buster. It is nearly impossible to find a wonderful puppy like Buster from a shelter environment that is being cared for as well as Buster has since he came to us. If you have always wanted to adopt a shelter puppy but were uneasy by the lack of excellent care the puppies you have met have received, Buster may be the puppy for you. You will not find a finer puppy ANYWHERE but YOU will need to be an extraordinary home to be a candidate for this extraordinary puppy. If you are committed to picking up the ball from what we have done for him, Buster will easily become the dog of your dreams. He truly is an awesome little man!! If you presently have a kind, gentle, sweet adult dog that could be a mentor to Buster that would be all the better. Preference will go to people that have a fenced-in yard although that is not a requirement. PLEASE NOTE: while we believe Buster has Poodle in him there is no guarantee that he is hypoallergenic!! If you feel that you are the type of home we are looking for, please e-mail the Duxbury Animal Shelter to set up an appointment to meet adorable Buster. NO PHONE CALLS, please!!
